Dictionary Orchestras, Roger Sayre, Brunswick windows

The Brunswick Window
158 Brunswick St, Jersey City, NJ

March 1-April 15

Dictionary Orchestras is Roger Sayre's whimsical exploration
of what Kurt Vonnegut refers to as a karass: "...teams that do God's Will, without ever discovering what they are doing" (Cats Cradle, 1963).
The series prompts musings on exclusion, visual trends, racial climates, and the progression of time.
